Chapter 57: The Goddess Who Came by the Moonlight
The outskirts of Milan
Although it is a cosmopolitan city, the countryside still retains its natural charm.
The lush and dense giant trees, the dense grass that hinders people's progress, and the primitive colors are still a little bit of qiē, and the traces of human green space seem to be difficult to see here. It was already close to the ridge, but because the soil was not fertile enough and the terrain was uneven, there were very few residents who remained here, so it must have been moved to the suburbs closer to the city.
However, there is an ancient castle built here, and the residents who still live here remember this very old year, although I don't know what family held it, but in recent years, there are slightly more people coming and going here than before, and it seems that someone lives here. Of course, the inhabitants still don't really know what is going on inside, because there is an enchantment outside the forest to expel mortals, and even the occasional mortal who comes in to hunt will quickly and automatically go out.
But for magicians, this place is a place to look up to. Because since ten years ago, there has been a king who has studied spells, and he is above the magician.
Although the king seldom went out and spent most of his time in the castle, his deeds were not overshadowed by such actions. He killed at least the Four Pillars God, defeated a new king in one fell swoop, defeated the Marquis of Warban in Eastern Europe, killed an Indian god, and was even rumored to have used his power to create a small glacial island near Greenland, the size of a small city.
The castle still stands in place, as if the passage of ten years has not changed much. However, because it is inhabited, the castle is also a little more lively, and you can occasionally see soldiers patrolling the city walls.
The basement floor is used as a special room and storage room, and of course it can also be used as a shelter under special circumstances, but at this time, it is in the deepest closed room that is abnormal.
The white and unsullied jade is carved with special silver-white symbols, although it looks very messy at a glance, but it contains infinite secrets, and people can't help but put their minds into it.
Suddenly, the array here suddenly shone brightly, and the two figures appeared here from virtual to real, and the slightly dim light made the two girls a little uncomfortable, but they quickly reacted.
"Lily, is this place?", a girl with a golden wavy curl asked with a few unexpected glances to her side, a little puzzled.
"Well, it's a safe place, an inconspicuous place outside of Milan. The silver girl replied as if she didn't care much.
"Whew...... So...... You were using dimensional magic just now?This should be a well-known magic fortress in the magic world?", Erica smiled wryly, as if surprised that her old enemy had mastered such powerful magic.
“...... How can I say it, I don't know the dimensional magic just now, it's just my brother...... The king has given me such runes to use. Liliana said very honestly, she didn't feel the need to bluff and tease this person, and besides, it was impossible for her to do that kind of thing.
"Dimensional Magic Item...... This thing really exists in ......", Erica seemed shocked by the news. The complexity of dimensional magic is far from the magic and spells of the ordinary system, and it is very difficult to delve into something different from this. One of the characters that Erica knew who could use dimensional magic was only able to warp space, linking two different locations to trap the enemy.
What's more, making this special prop not only requires a very strong attainment in dimensional magic, but also a strong alchemy, and only by combining the above points can this kind of magic item be created. Erica was already in awe of the so-called King of Magic, not only because he was a magician, but also because of his admiration for the myriad knowledge and abilities he possessed.
"Leave it alone...... It's not too far from Milan, and the Earth Mother is expected to catch up soon. Liliana said a little anxiously, pulling Alikala open the door of the secret room.
A teenager was sitting very leisurely on a chair not far away, holding an unknown special material in his hand, as if he was studying something.
And Liliana looked at the young man sitting not far away, her face was a little more surprised, but she immediately reacted. The special rune stone she used with a space jump engraved on it was made by the boy in front of her, and if she used it, the boy would definitely be the first to know.
"...... King," the girl took a step forward, made a little knightly courtesy, and whispered:
"It seems that a Mother Earth has descended on the ...... Milan," the girl recounted a little bit about her and Erica's encounter with the young silver goddess.
"Ah, sure enough, it's her...... You must have been attracted by the Stone of Gorgon. The boy said as he kneaded the special stone in his hand, and the invisible mana fluctuated out, and after a specific transformation, the originally black ashlar changed into a silver bright round emblem, and the boy gave it a little glance and handed it to Liliana.
"The God of Disobedience is still unable to deal with Lily at present, this dimensional emblem will be kept first, and it should be able to use three non-directional teleportations. The boy said, as if he was not giving something extraordinary.
The one just now is "alchemy?can easily change the properties of objects and create magic items?Erica, who was standing behind her, was shocked again, and the young man in front of her seemed to have a terrifying attainment in alchemy......
Alchemy, of course, is also some of the achievements of the teenager over the years. Because of the collection of classics and spells of various systems, the accumulation of knowledge on the manufacture of magic items is also enough. Of course, the most important point is that the boy has a deeper understanding of the nature of space, and in some respects, it also has a great bonus to his alchemy.
The nature of space is a measure that describes the form and relative position of objects, and also participates in the fundamental composition of the entire universe. Describing and defining the form of an object, the extension of this point is expressed as being able to change the morphological structure of the object, with this support, the boy can even directly transform the essence and morphological properties of the material without all kinds of complicated processing facilities, coupled with his sufficient knowledge of alchemy, the boy can use alchemy to make magic items anytime and anywhere.
However, materials are the important issues that limit the progress of alchemy, even teenagers at this stage cannot create the materials needed to create zào from scratch, and it is too troublesome to collect some special materials for magic items. For example, he originally planned to make magic items that could be teleported an unlimited number of times, but each time he had to change to consumable due to material limitations.
"There's no technology, but there's no material...... It's really troublesome......", the boy sighed, as if he wasn't very satisfied with what he had just done.
Liliana didn't seem to notice the look on the boy's face, she looked at the silver emblem very seriously, the dense texture and the faintly powerful power on it were shocking, but what she noticed the most was that this should be the concern that the boy could vaguely feel when he said those words.
Erica seemed to feel that her old enemy was staying, and was a little surprised, but seeing Liliana's happy look, she understood a little, sighed slightly, and then gave a knightly salute to the young man in front of her.
"Your mastery of magic and alchemy has reached an inhuman level, and the King of Magic is indeed the most appropriate title for you. Erica said respectfully.
Although she has heard that this king's temper is quite easy-going, she has been deeply involved in a certain sword king who is very arrogant and troublesome everywhere, and she knows very well that the god killers are a group of chaotic characters. She was so worried about being seriously injured every time she could meet and fight with characters related to mythology, and the shadow of the young man in her heart lingered despite the constant troubles that made people feel reliable.
"Aha, you're just a little interested, after all, I've had a little bit of free time lately, and I've just made some of it. The boy didn't seem to care, and replied casually.
"You're humble...... Then the Stone of Gorgon is yours. Erica took out a fist-sized obsidian badge and handed it to the teenager to look at.
She handed over this tricky thing to the teenager in front of her, not out of some kind of awe, but because she had to make this choice. Some time ago, her king ran to play around Sardinia for some reason, and ran into a newly born god killer, and after the two fought, even the sword king, known as the Immortal Steel, was quite traumatized. She and Andre didn't know how much it took to get the obedient to stay at home to recuperate. And the stone in front of her will definitely provoke the disobedient Mother Mother Goddess, she doesn't want her king who is still seriously injured to go to the battlefield, no matter what, she has to wait until the injury recovers.
"Oh, the Mark of the Dragons and Serpents...... The authority of the earth? interesting...... Kindness...... Heck, what a good opponent. The mana on the boy's body changed slightly, as if he had obtained incredible information from this inconspicuous thing.
"Lily, what name do you see through the vision?", the boy asked, placing the stone on the table, with a little bit of thoughtfulness.
"Well...... There are so many names, such as Agrothela, Astyla, Nike, and Potnia, and the legends about him are indeed too extensive. Liliana kept spitting out her name, as if she had obtained quite a lot of information based on her vision.
"Indeed, hunting, night, victory, battle, wisdom, she has been endowed with many identities. But I'm afraid the most well-known name is that. Athena, known as the goddess of wisdom and war, has the existence of darkness, life, and the lord of wisdom. The young man slowly said the name, and seemed to be a little surprised.
"But...... Shouldn't this be a mortal enemy of Gorgon?...... She personally cut off Gorgon's head and set it in her shield. Erica asked, a little confused.
"You mean that...... Gorgon, that is, Medusa, has an inseparable relationship with her, and was placed on the shield to show her true nature, and later this kind of story was produced because of the distortion of mythology, and Medusa is also one of her essences in the true sense. ", the boy played with the pitch-black stone and explained slightly.
And in his pale blue pupils, a different picture was reflected.
The young silver girl was walking barefoot on the earth, and the darkness and silence bound the moonlight, leaving only the deepest darkness and power.
And this young goddess was slowly looking at the ancient castle shrouded in magic enchantment in the distance.
